For my day to end happily.

Twists and turns. Life is full of 'em. Especially in baseball. Happened last night. I went from feeling low. To exuberantly high. Because the Chicago Cubs toyed with me. In an effort to break out of a three-game losing streak. The Cubs trailed the Colorado Rockies early. But the Cubs rallied with a six-run fourth inning. And added another run later. To take a 7-4 lead. Looked like the Cubs had the game all wrapped up. Until the 9th inning. When Colorado rallied and took an 8-7 lead. I was depressed. But with two outs in the ninth inning, and a runner on base, the Cubs got a home run. And won the game 9-8. Lifting my spirits sky high. Yes, that's all it takes. For my day to end happily.  --Jim Broede
